Difference Between Cone Crusher And Impact Crusher

Cone crusher and impact crusher are both commonly used in crushing production line. The raw materials are usually crushed to the desired particle size. The main difference between cone crusher and impact crusher is the crushing chamber. Both are usually used in the crushing production line in the secondary crushing. After the material passes through the first step of the crusher. Then the secondary crushing can reach the ideal particle size. But there are some differences between the cone crusher and the impact crusher. For example: working principle, performance characteristics, applicable materials, crushing effect, production costs and so on.

Working principle:
Cone crusher is mainly composed of: frame, moving cone, solid vertebrae, transmission device and other components. The material enters into the cone crushing chamber. It adopts stratified crushing method. Through the moving cone and fixed vertebrae mutual extrusion, shear, stretching, etc., so that the material is crushed. Thus crushed into the required particle size size.

Impact crusher is composed of: crushing chamber, impact plate, hammer plate, feeding port, device and so on. The material enters into the crushing chamber from the feeding port. The cyclone structure uses the serrated impact piece on the top of the spiral strong. Make the material fall freely. Be continuous impact. Impacted and crushed by the high-speed rotating hammer plate and impact plate. The final dispersion of the desired particle size.

Performance Characteristics:
The main advantages of cone crusher are large crushing ratio and high production efficiency. It can process a large amount of materials quickly in a short time. Thus improving its production efficiency. It can meet various production requirements. But the investment cost and maintenance cost of its cone crusher are high. The humidity of the material has certain requirements.

The main feature of anti-technology crusher is low investment cost. Simple structure and low maintenance cost. Maintenance is very convenient. There is no need for complex lubrication system. There is also no need for regular maintenance checks. Impact crusher can deal with all kinds of hardness materials. It has good crushing effect. But its productivity is low and the crushing ratio is small.

Scope of application:
Cone crusher is suitable for: crushing medium-hard and high ores and rocks. For example: granite, cobblestone, limestone, pyroxene and so on. It can be used in the crushing operation of mining, cement, metallurgy, construction, chemical industry and other industries.
Impact crusher is suitable for: often crushing ores and rocks with low medium hardness. For example: gypsum, limestone, gangue, coal and so on. It can be used in:crushing operations in the field of highway, railway, water conservancy, construction and other industries.

Crushing effect:
Cone crusher can be adjusted by adjusting the height of the knuckle sleeve. By changing the diameter of the crushing chamber rotary ring. So as to achieve the regulation of the size of the crushed particles. It can better change its particle size and shape.
Impact crusher relies on the mutual impact of the high-speed rotating hammer plate and impact plate. The material will be crushed. The crushing effect depends on the number of hammer plates and impact plates, rotating speed, impact strength and so on.
